So sad to hear about the death of David Lynch. He was one of a small number of directors that opened up a completely different world of film and TV. Blue Velvet and the Elephant Man terrified me when I was growing up. Mulholland Drive, Twin Peaks and Lost Highway continue to baffle me now.

This is wild. Zuckerberg has truly gone all-in on Trump here in a bid to keep Meta in the government's good books.

What will it mean for brands and users? More misinformation, more online hate, more reputational harm for companies.

The UK Online Safety Act has a huge year ahead...

Tomorrow sees @battenhall.com's 12th annual social media event. We'll be at Curzon Soho from 8am with a room packed full of marketing gurus. Speakers include @drew.battenhall.com @nica.bsky.social and @emmahd.bsky.social. We're full now but look out for our social media report that drops tomorrow 👀

There are only a few seats left for this event in London next week, so register quickly if you want to find out how to plan your social media strategy for 2025. (Spoiler: includes a fair bit about the tussle between Bluesky, Threads and X)

Trying to find people I might know on Bluesky

No Sunday in Soho would be complete without a visit to Forbidden Planet

Bluesky rn is like freshers week where you’re trying to work out who to be friends with for the next three years 🍻

Great to see some of my fav tweeters on here now. The community looks to be growing fast 🔥

Hi, Blueskyers 👋 Excited to see if this place can become my new social home 🤞
